Story
Butter was born along with 3 other siblings, in my daughter's bedroom on February 14 2021, after we took in his mama who had been a stray. We kept Butter and his brother Scotty. Butter is a very sweet, timid kind of cat who I've come to realize is not suited for a lot of noise and activity. Both of which our house is full of. He is easy to stress, and this causes litter box issues. He gets along with everyone and tolerates a lot, but he really just needs a quieter house.

Story
Finn is an indoor cat who came up to our house out of the woods 5 years ago. He is playful and energetic. He enjoys chasing toys and getting brushed. He likes climbing onto his cat stand to watch the birds outside. He also likes to cuddle and get scratched on the ears and chin. He gets his nails clipped monthly. He eats a special food for cats who have had urinary stones and cannot eat treats due to that dietary restriction. We love him and don't want to lose him, but our older cats and dog do not get along with him. He needs a loving owner who will appreciate his needs in a home free of other pets.

Newt was found in back of a restaurant. He is a good boy that has a desire to be loved. He was never taught to use a litter box, but I am sure he would if shown how. He is small for his age. He is almost 2 yrs old. He does not eat people food except chicken sometimes (he has to be in the mood).
